Casio Electronics Ltd, in conjunction with its parent company Casio
Computer Cc., Ltd. announced the release of the latest addition to its
Exilim Zoom digital camera series with the EX-Z600. The latest
evolution in this popular series offers 6.0 megapixel high resolution
photos in a stylish, compact, and pocket-sized package. The extra large
2.7 inch Super Bright LCD is approximately three times brighter than
the previous EX-Z500 model, producing an impressive luminance of 1200
candelas per square metre. This significant advancement makes the LCD
easier to see, especially when viewed in the sunny outdoors. In auto
mode, the LCD automatically adjusts to the brightness of the
surrounding environment. The EX-Z600s Super Life Battery now
has an even longer battery life, supporting a staggering 550 shots per
charge*.

The Exilim line is a culmination of Casios core technologies
of miniaturization and digital technology resulting in a smaller,
higher resolution camera - the established trend leader in stylish,
quick responding, large LCD, and long battery life digital cameras. The
EX-Z600 includes the latest version of the Exilim Engine, featuring the
Anti Shake DSP, which along with the Auto Macro and Quick Shutter
functions, considerably reduces the incidence of blurred photos due to
moving subjects or shaking hands.

New to the EX-Z600 is the Rapid Flash function, which enables three
consecutive high speed flash photos in only one second, allowing you to
completely capture the moment without losing precious seconds between
shots. The EX-Z600 includes Revive Shot, used to take still images from
old album photos for long term preservation and enjoyment. Revive Shot
digitally revives faded colours and automatically adjusts for
obliquity, even when photos are shot while still in the album. The
EX-Z600 is equipped with a Bestshot Button, allowing convenient
one-touch access to this popular feature that offers 32 different scene
selections, including Anti Shake and Revive Shot, for hassle-free
photos every time.

The EX-Z600 embodies Casios continuing commitment to offer
digital camera users cutting-edge technology and convenient
user-friendly functionality in a small, stylishly designed package.
Providing the freedom to take high quality pictures and movies
anywhere, anytime, the new EX-Z600 makes taking memories as easy and
fun as making them.

The EX-Z600 will be available in the UK from March 2006 in silver,
black and blue from all good digital camera retailers.
